EU MINISTERS: JERUSALEM TO BE JOINT CAPITAL OF ISRAEL, PALESTINIAN STATE
December 8, 2009
Haaretz reports: “European Union foreign ministers on Tuesday called for negotiations over the status of Jerusalem, saying a way should be found to make it the capital of two nations, Israel and a future Palestinian state.
Sweden, which currently holds the European Union presidency, presented a draft document last week supporting the division of Jerusalem and the recognition of East Jerusalem as the capital of a future Palestinian state.
‘If there is to be a genuine peace, a way must be found through negotiations to resolve the status of Jerusalem as the future capital of two states,’ EU foreign ministers agreed in a statement released on Tuesday, diplomats said.
The status of Jerusalem - a city holy to three religions - is a sensitive issue for Israel, which considers the city to be its indivisible capital. Palestinians want the eastern part of Jerusalem to serve as the capital of a Palestinian state.
Israel has strongly objected to the Swedish draft resolution that does not recognize Israel's claims to the eastern part of the city. Israel's Foreign Ministry warned the move would damage the EU's ability to be a Mideast mediator.
‘The EU will not recognize any changes to the pre-1967 borders, including with regard to Jerusalem,’ said the EU ministerial draft. It referred to the Six-Day War in which Israel captured east Jerusalem from the Jordanian army.
The document also called for the establishment of a Palestinian state comprising the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem. ‘If there is to be [peace] a way has to be found to resolve the status of Jerusalem as the capital of two states,’ it said.
The competing claims to East Jerusalem remain the most intractable issue in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Last week, Israel sternly warned the EU against adopting new language that endorses East Jerusalem as the capital of a Palestinian state.
The draft released Tuesday said the ministers are ‘deeply concerned about the situation in East Jerusalem’ and urged both sides to avoid what it called ‘provocative actions.’
Most EU ministers appeared supportive of the latest draft, although some said the declaration should not antagonize either party in the dispute at the risk of undermining efforts to restart peace talks.
‘I don't really understand why Israel does not accept that Palestine consists of the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem,’ Luxembourg's Foreign Minister Jean Asselborn told journalists. ‘The Israelis have a right to live in Israel, the Palestinians have a right to live in Palestine.’...”

Israel should be right after giving praise and thanksgiving in every Christian's prayer life daily. We should pray and are commanded to pray for Israel daily without ceasing , we must stand in the gap for Israel. as you say the World as a whole is not going to, nor are they expected to, but the Lord does expect His Body to. Amen?

With all respect horsecamp here is what you are saying (according to your blog):

..... A 1000 years is not a 1000 years, rather it is (so far) about 2000 years (since Christ crucified)

..... by your reckoning Satan has been bound for about 2000 years and is no longer deceiving the nations.

..... by your reckoning the beast and his mark have already come and gone and the first resurrection has already taken place.

......by your reckoning these resurrected Christians are here reigning with Christ for a thousand years (which you say is really 2000 years)


I would sure enjoy meeting some of those resurrected Christians who are here and have been here for 2000 years and I would find it most interesting to study the historical accounts about the people who worshiped the image of the beast and received his mark.

There are a lot of people who cannot tolerate the scriptures regarding the 1000 years. Why is that? What is wrong with it just the way it is written? I find there is usually a secondary ulterior motive involved.

Somebody has made a theological assumption somewhere in their eschatology and find they must discard a lot of other scriptures to make it fit. I find that is always the reason.

A person should always let the evidence lead them to a conclusion.
To form a conclusion and then discard evidence that does not fit will run into endless problems.
I find many people stubbornly defend endless problems.
It is one of the many strange quirks found in mankind.
